Tangle Teezer

This hair brush is so cool! It’s great for hair extensions, short hair, long hair, thick or thin, curly or straight, it’s fab! It doesn’t pull your hair and is great to use at the gym as it doesn’t take up much space in your bag. 

Australian Bodycare Exfoliating Body Wash

I use Australian Bodycare products which are made with tea tree oil as the oil has antiseptic properties and it’s great for using on sweaty gym skin.  I like to use an exfoliant on any skin that I have waxed every couple of days to prevent ingrowing hairs and this works really well especially due to the tea tree oil, I get much fewer ingrowing hairs when I use this and I often use the matching moisturiser as well.


Alpecin Caffeine Shampoo

I bought this shampoo to help increase the bloodflow and circulation in my scalp which I was hoping would help my hair grow.  I don’t really see any difference to be honest but this is amazing to use after I have done my workout as it really wakes me up, like having a red bull!  It feels so zingy and fresh and does give he hair quite a bit of volume.  I wouldn’t use this outside of the gym but it definitely makes me feel more awake when my workout has made me really tired.


Korres Conditioner Silk Milk

This is a really reasonably priced conditioner considering it is paraben, sls free and vegan and contains hydrolised silk which is usually only reserved for quite expensive hair products.  The smell of this conditioner really is milky, like greek yoghurt and it also contains jojoba oil which is fab for hair  and extremely moisturising.  If you like the smell then this is a brilliant conditioner for super silky hair.

Korres Body Butter  in Quince

I have loved Korres body butters for ages, they are natural, they come in a pump bottle rather than a tub which means the butter gets under your nails, they sink in quickly, the smell amazing (all the scents). Quince is my absolute favourite scent.  This is the best product in Korres’ entire range in my opinion and I never buy any other body butters. It’s that good!

Victoria’s Secret Body Splash

I think  my one is called coconut passion, to be honest I like all of them, they are so hard to get in the UK I will just use whichever one I can get.  This one was bought at Terminal 5 Heathrow airport in the UK.  I love how scented these are, a few spritzes before working out and no manky smells will escape you!  I wish we had Victoria Secret here, they keep saying that we will but who knows.


Vo5 Surf Style

Now my hair is super short I blast it dry with some mousse then put a tiny bit of this in my hands, rub together and then pull through my hair using my fingers as a sort of comb, I work from underneath too the top so my hair doesn’t get a greasy look.  It gives you a messy beachy look.

These are just some things that I keep in my gym bag, please do let me know what you keep in yours, do you have any good items that save time?
